The UK’s creative industries are a powerful force, fuelling both the economy and global cultural influence. In addition, a growing body of research shows that the arts offer significant benefits to wellbeing, both at an individual and societal level. Despite this opportunity to enact positive change, many creative agencies measure their success on a purely commercial basis – but FSC sees things differently. We recognise that we can be a catalyst for social prosperity, and we make this happen through a programme we call Creative For Good.

Creativity thrives when it’s nurtured and shared. At a time when young people face shrinking opportunities in the arts, we’re working to open doors. Through our Creative For Good programme and partnership with Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, we’re championing the emerging talent that’s vital for our industry’s future, and keeping creativity visible and valued.

FSC Member Jade Coles, a Culture Specialist & Programmer, and Creative Producer for Events & Digital, shares the essential steps to create authentic and diverse experiences in this new era of events. The post-pandemic world has significantly impacted various industries: with the new hybrid strategy combining in-person and digital experiences, there are endless opportunities to unite communities through events and experiences.
